Attendants for the couple Lamp Makes Rounds in Club During Years BoQnville, Ind. Wi Mrs. Httman Koth of the Boonville Literary club faces a year of fun thinking up sly methods to get rid of "the lamp." Mrs. loth recently became the "proud owner" of the 'thing" which is going into its 10th year as a "white elephant" tradition at the club's sales. All that is left of it is the base a statuette of a disrobed girl. The remains may have acquired a new 'name to rank with "Oscar" and "Emmy' this year. It was dubbed "My Fair Lady." Ten years ago when the lamp made its first appearance at the club's annual "white elephant" ale, it was complete with a small shade and broken wiring. "She" has lost her former trappings during her tour of members' closets and frantic effors to rid themselves of her. A few yers ago Mrs. Eske Leslie decided, to pretty up the lamp. She gave it a coat of white paint, plus features for the girl's face and long black hair. Mrs. Roth said the lamp was originally "vintage of the 1920s." Mrs. William Kindermann was the first to buy it. She bid in the lamp in various disguises two other years to set a club record. Once in a lamp's career it was thrust in a paper sack with two chicken feet sticking out the top. All of the sellers have been successful in their attempts to conceal the identity of the lamp. Some have wrapped it in big boxes and some in small ones. In later years members have become sneakier. Mrs. Roth be came the second-high-bidder to be victimized by an extremely small package containing an "ode" to the new owner. Every "buyer" has auto graphed the lamp. But the name of the original owner is shroud ed in secrecy. It was rumored her name is known to a few members, but they aren't telling. Mrs. Roth made it plain "My Fair Lady" is "cocealed" in her home. But she warned her fel low members to beware when the club holds its annual white elephant sale jn the second Tuesday in March, 1958. 1 o Annua!
